Not one to "go gentle into that good night," Barack Obama’s administration set a record on November 17 by issuing 527 pages of new and proposed federal rules and regulations in one day. This increases the total number of pages in the daily chronicle of the central government’s edicts, the Federal Register, to a shocking 81,640 pages for 2016 alone as of Nov. 17!

Obama isn’t a newcomer to this lamentable level of legislation through regulation, however. The old high water mark for the number of pages printed in the Federal Register for one year was 81,405 set in 2010 by the Obama administration.

“No one knows what the future holds, but at a pace of well over 1,000 pages weekly, the Federal Register could easily top 90,000 pages this year,” said Clyde Wayne Crews of the Competitive Enterprise Institute. “The simple algebra says that at the current pace we’ll add 11,190 pages over the next 44 days, to end 2016 at around 92,830 pages.”

“It is remarkable enough that the all-time record has been passed before Thanksgiving,” Crews remarked.

In its coverage of the new record, the Free Beacon reports that “President Obama owns seven of the ten highest ever federal register page counts.”

“This is the anaconda that (day-by-day) squeezes the life out of the American economy. The federal government has enmeshed itself into the economic, social, and private lives of everyone,” Rossini writes.

“To call this ‘freedom’ is to completely misunderstand what freedom means. It's authoritarianism and it grows relentlessly,” he adds.

In a chart included in the Ron Paul Liberty Report story, the pattern of rapid regulatory expansion is evident under presidents of both parties, demonstrating the duopoly’s determination to consolidate all power — legislative and executive — into the Oval Office.

In an engaging essay published by the Foundation for Economic Education (F.E.E.), Richard M. Ebeling, the BB&T Distinguished Professor of Ethics and Free Enterprise Leadership at The Citadel in Charleston, South Carolina, explains that over-regulation by the chief executive was one of the factors that brought down the Roman Empire, too.

“In A.D. 301, the famous Edict of Diocletian was passed. The Emperor fixed the prices of grain, beef, eggs, clothing, and other articles sold on the market. He also fixed the wages of those employed in the production of these goods. The penalty imposed for violation of these price and wage controls, that is, for any one caught selling any of these goods at higher than prescribed prices and wages, was death,” Ebeling explains.

In his own study of the end of ancient Rome, 18th-century historian Edward Gibbon identified an over-bloated bureaucracy as one of the contributors to the collapse of the once mighty superpower:

The number of ministers, of magistrates, of officers, and of servants, who filled the different departments of the state, was mul­tiplied beyond the example of for­mer times; and (if we may bor­row the warm expression of a con­temporary) "when the proportion of those who received exceeded the proportion of those who con­tributed the provinces were op­pressed by the weight of tributes." From this period to the extinction of the empire it would be easy to deduce an uninterrupted series of clamors and complaints.

Accord­ing to his religion and situation, each writer chooses either Diocle­tian or Constantine or Valens or Theodosius, for the object of his invectives; but they unanimously agree in representing the burden of the public impositions, and par­ticularly the land-tax and capita­tion, as the intolerable and in­creasing grievance of their own times.

Another historian, Tacitus, witnessed the decline and fall of Rome during his lifetime and in his Annals he provides his first-hand account of the unwinding of the once self-governing society of Rome.

Tacitus pointed to the increasing power of the bureaucrats as a reason republican liberty was becoming a myth in his time. He reported that the Roman Empire under Caesar Augustus employed 1,800 bureaucrats throughout the whole of the expansive empire.

While 1,800 bureaucrats may sound like a lot, that’s far fewer than those regulation-writing civil servants employed by the state of Nevada alone!

Finally, on this point Canadian classi­cal scholar W. G. Hardy added his voice to the chorus of classicists identifying the growing Roman bureaucracy as a reasons for its demise:

Even before the plague the Roman world was rotting from within. Government paternalism, bureaucracy, inflation, an ever in­creasing taste for the brutal and brutalizing spectacles of the am­phitheater and the circus were symptoms of a spiritual malaise which had begun when political freedom was tossed away in the interests of peace, security, and materialism.

In his Democracy in America, French aristocrat Alexis de Tocqueville warned what would happen should government become a means of regulation of the lives of Americans.

“Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupe­fies a people, till each nation is re­duced to be nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious ani­mals, of which the government is the shepherd,” the famous Frenchman observed.

The entirety of presidential power is defined in the Constitution. The Constitution represents the supreme law of the land, and all federal offices created therein are given specific and limited powers. If a president (or any other man holding elective office under the Constitution) ventures beyond those restrictive boundaries, he acts outside the law and those actions are absolutely without the force of law, and people are obligated to disregard them.

Perhaps this point is made most clearly in Book I, Chapter 3 of Emer de Vattel’s Law of Nations, a book that profoundly impacted every leading light of the Founding Generation from Sam Adams to James Wilson. Here is de Vattel’s statement on the subject of a ruler acting outside the limits of his constitutionally defined powers:

The constitution and laws of a state are the basis of the public tranquility, the firmest support of political authority, and a security for the liberty of the citizens. But this constitution is a vain phantom, and the best laws are useless, if they be not religiously observed: the nation ought then to watch very attentively, in order to render them equally respected by those who govern, and by the people destined to obey. To attack the constitution of the state, and to violate its laws, is a capital crime against society; and if those guilty of it are invested with authority, they add to this crime a perfidious abuse of the power with which they are entrusted. The nation ought constantly to repress them with its utmost vigor and vigilance, as the importance of the case requires.

Finally, it is estimated that since Barack Obama took office in 2009, the regulatory burden placed on the backs of Americans has increased by about $108 billion annually.

Admittedly, the United States isn’t Rome, but we will follow her path to ruin if we continue to allow presidents — Barack Obama or his successors — to oversee the promulgation of record levels of regulations that strangle the economic life and political liberty out of the once self-governing men and women of this country.

“Not My President! Not My President!” Day after day, in cities from coast to coast, the chanting mobs of rioters have illegally blocked streets and freeways, set fires, thrown Molotov cocktails, injured police officers, destroyed property, and defaced public buildings with graffiti. Portland, Oregon, a bastion of “progressive” Democrats, has been the epicenter of much of the violent action aimed at president-elect Donald Trump. Of course, as we have previously reported, not only did most of the Portland rioters who were arrested fail to register to vote, a large percentage of them appear to be professional, paid protesters.

Many of the anti-Trump rioters, then, would appear not only to have violated state laws against rioting and inciting to riot, but also federal law against the same crime. Specifically, the rioters could be (and should be) charged under Title 18 U.S. Code § 2101, which provides

(a) Whoever travels in interstate or foreign commerce or uses any facility of interstate or foreign commerce, including, but not limited to, the mail, telegraph, telephone, radio, or television, with intent —

(1) to incite a riot; or

(2) to organize, promote, encourage, participate in, or carry on a riot; or

(3) to commit any act of violence in furtherance of a riot; or

(4) to aid or abet any person in inciting or participating in or carrying on a riot or committing any act of violence in furtherance of a riot....

Shall be fined under this title, or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

The definition section of 18 U.S. Code § 2102 defines the crime of rioting this way:

(a) As used in this chapter, the term “riot” means a public disturbance involving (1) an act or acts of violence by one or more persons part of an assemblage of three or more persons, which act or acts shall constitute a clear and present danger of, or shall result in, damage or injury to the property of any other person or to the person of any other individual or (2) a threat or threats of the commission of an act or acts of violence by one or more persons part of an assemblage of three or more persons having, individually or collectively, the ability of immediate execution of such threat or threats, where the performance of the threatened act or acts of violence would constitute a clear and present danger of, or would result in, damage or injury to the property of any other person or to the person of any other individual.

Obviously, the anti-Trump rioters who were arrested for starting fires and committing other acts of violence and public disturbance should be prosecuted under applicable state laws, and those who traveled interstate to do the same should also be prosecuted under federal law as well. But what about the organizers of the riots, those who hired the rioters and transported the perpetrators across state lines to engage in this criminal activity? Are they not also culpable under the “aid and abet” provisions cited above? Are they not also liable for prosecution under the federal conspiracy statute (18 U.S. Code § 371) which provides:

If two or more persons conspire either to commit any offense against the United States, or to defraud the United States, or any agency thereof in any manner or for any purpose, and one or more of such persons do any act to effect the object of the conspiracy, each shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than five years, or both.

The Obama Department of Justice had no problem with charging Oregon ranchers Dwight and Steven Hammond — respected, hard-working, tax-paying, law-abiding citizens — with terrorism and arson, for accidentally burning a few acres of “public land” while carrying out a controlled burn on their own land. The Obama/Lynch DOJ prosecuted these dangerous “terrorists” and threw them into federal prison. (See here and here).

When supporters of the Hammonds, led by Nevada ranching family members Ammon and Ryan Bundy peacefully occupied the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in protest earlier this year, the Obama administration mobilized all its resources in response, including an ambush that resulted in the shooting death of Hammond supporter Robert LaVoy Finicum.

The Obama administration and its media allies were stunned a few weeks ago when an Oregon jury acquitted the Bundy brothers and their five additional co-defendants of all charges, including charges of conspiracy to use “force, intimidation, and threats” against federal employees. Will the Obama/Lynch DOJ show any similar zeal to prosecute the thugs who carried out the violent riots in Portland, Oregon — or in the many other venues around the country? Will they prosecute the co-conspirators who financed and planned the riots? That is highly unlikely, since the financiers of the “#NotMyPresident” anti-Trump rallies are some of the Democrat Party’s biggest donors. Heading the list of the Rioters-R-Us financiers is top Obama/Clinton fundraiser George Soros (shown at right), the Daddy Warbucks of all causes socialist and subversive.

Over the past couple of decades, the hedge fund billionaire and globalist gadfly has poured hundreds of millions of dollars of his ill-gotten gains into hundreds of organizations and dozens of schemes aimed at empowering global government through the United Nations and destroying our constitutional limitations on government. Here is a short list of the many violent, illegal, and/or unethical rent-a-mob actions and Astroturf “movements” for which “philanthropist” George Soros should be called to account:

• The recent anti-Trump riots have been reliably reported as the handiwork of paid “protesters” organized by MoveOn.org, Planned Parenthood, #BlackLivesMatter, and other groups that have been heavily funded by Soros.

• Top Hillary Clinton Campaign and Democratic National Committee operatives have been exposed in the undercover videos by Project Veritas boasting of their illegal activities, including voter fraud, inciting riots, and instigating violence at Trump rallies. Soros’ funding ties to these operations and his past funding of similar illicit activities indicate that, at the very least, he be investigated for possible prosecution regarding these serious crimes as well.

Various organizations, including those funded by Soros, have announced plans for massive demonstrations leading up to, and on, Inauguration Day, January 21. Based upon the rhetoric of the organizers and the recent record of their activities across the country, there is very good reason to believe that these upcoming “protests” will be as violent and lawless as those we have already witnessed.

George Soros has been allowed to operate above the law for too long. It is time that he — and other uber-rich activist financiers like him — be put on notice that they will be held accountable for funding criminal activity. These “Lords of Chaos” must find out that they too are subject to the same rule of law that is binding on the rest of us mere mortals.

Freedom of speech is staring down the barrel of a gun loaded by a cancer of global interests that have laid claim to the last remaining fragments of the First Amendment of The United States of America. RT reports "Former congressman Ron Paul revealed a list of “fake news” journalists he claims are responsible for “bogus wars” and lies about Hillary Clinton’s chances of winning the election. Journalists from CNN, the New York Times, and the Guardian are included.

“This list contains the culprits who told us that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction and lied us into multiple bogus wars,” according to a report on his website, Ron Paul Liberty Report. Paul claims the list is sourced and “holds a lot more water” than a list previously released by Melissa Zimdars, who is described by Zero Hedge as an "ultra-liberal, Assistant Professor of Communications at Merrimack College” Zimdars list in itself should be considered fake. A list containing actual fake news sites alongside true news gathering alternative view sites that utilize a system of dissecting the mainstream narrative and its long history of fake reporting. Fake reporting is nothing new, just ask Brian Williams. But with the loss of the globalists foothold and the quiet death of the Smith-Mundt Act in 2013. Propaganda is being waged on all fronts.

New York’s governor, Andrew Cuomo, has offered up three initiatives aimed at countering what he classifies as the “social crisis” that’s hit America due to so-called Donald Trump-inspired racist rhetoric, telling a crowd of churchgoers in Harlem over the weekend: “We are all immigrants” and we must fight for civil rights.

And one of the initiatives involves the use of taxpayer dollars to help illegal immigrants bring court cases against those they accuse of discrimination and bias.

“New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo on Sunday announced plans to create a new hate-crimes unit in the state police and legal assistance for immigrants targeted for deportation or discrimination. …

“The legal assistance will take the form of a public-private legal defense fund run by the New York State Office for New Americans, according to a Cuomo spokeswoman. …

“Mr. Cuomo also said he hopes to expand the state’s human-rights law, which bars discrimination based on age, race, sexual orientation and other categories, to all students in New York. It currently only grants such protections to private-school students.”

Aside from the fact the Constitution and current law already guarantee equal rights and equal protections for all citizens – though not for those in the country illegally, which is the segment of population Cuomo’s taking under his wing – the oddity of these initiatives is that they’re coming in response to reports of Trump supporters painting a swastika and the phrase “Make America White Again” in the New York community of Wellsville.

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo seems to be blind to the violence from the Donald Trump protester movement.

They’re not coming on the heels of the many reports of Trump supporters being targeted, attacked, beaten and vilified by those on the left for the simple reason of being Trump supporters. A New York man was just attacked on a city subway for wearing a Donald Trump cap, for instance. How come Cuomo didn’t bring on these initiatives then?

“‘The ugly political discourse of the election did not end on Election Day,’ Cuomo, a Democrat, told the well-known African-American congregation. ‘In many ways it has gotten worse, (growing) into a social crisis that now challenges our identity as a state and as a nation and our people.'”

But here’s the truth: Cuomo’s not so much interested in civil rights, social justice and constitutional protects for all.

Rather, he’s much more interested in blocking Trump’s law and order vision of governing in favor of furthering the far left’s utopian scheme of opening borders to all.

And he’s selling it as an expression of concern over Trump’s rhetoric, while ignoring the violence by those of his own party and political mind against those who’ve done nothing but cast a ballot for someone the left can’t stomach – kind of like the very hate crimes Cuomo says is taking place in widespread fashion by Trump supporters against innocent non-citizens and minorities.

“‘If there is a move to deport immigrants, then I say start with me,’ Cuomo said, to the mostly black congregants of the Abyssinian Baptist Church in New York City, the Wall Street Journal reported. ‘If we deport immigrants then I ask, ‘Who is safe and who will be left?’ Because we are all immigrants. If we deport immigrants then the only ones left will be the Iroquois, the Sioux and the Cherokee and the Apaches.”

The ferocity with which the left and their running dog lackey in the main stream media have attacked former Breitbart publisher Stephen K. Bannon is a testimony to his effectiveness and clear-eyed understanding of the challenges detailed in wrenching control of the U.S. government from the special interest, globalists in multinational corporation whose policies have driven us to the brink of bankruptcy and to be the laughingstock of the world community.

In the interest of full disclosure I have written for Breitbart News and have every intention of continuing. Although Breitbart News is sharp edged and articulate it is neither anti-semitic nor racist and neither is Steve Bannon.

The claim that Bannon is anti-semitic comes from his ex wife in an acrimonious divorce proceeding and has been vehemently denied by Bannon. There is no other evidence that Bannon harbors ill feeling towards Jews or Israel. The Clinton Oppo file distributed by the Clintonistas to the MSM supplies the fodder for the constant barrage of incoming visited upon the former Brietbart publisher.

Bannon is targeted because the left knows he is dangerous. Bannon has a keen understanding of alternative media and the Internet. Bannon understands the greater cultural divides and developments in the electorate which made the Trump victory possible. Bannon also knows that the Trump administration must not be co-opted by the party establishment types or the neocons who’s war policies Trump disagrees with. Internally Bannon is the keeper of the Trump flame and must be a protector of the Trump agenda.

To be a great president Trump must deliver on his core promises of sealing our boarders, recharging economy, renegotiating the detrimental globalist trade deals upgrading veterans healthcare to be the finest in the world, creating a job boom in our inner cities while conducting a foreign policy that keeps us out of war while entering a new period of detente and hardheaded negotiations with Putin and the Russians that will enable us to work in coordination to crush our mutual enemy ISIS.

Concerns about crimes committed in their country by illegal immigrants and concerns about the ultimate social welfare costs for those who come here illegally and stay does not make one a racist.

The charge of racist has become a staple of the 500 million front organizations funded by George Soros and is used to attack anyone who questions the policy of record of the Clintons. In fact the 1994 Crime Bill which incarcerated an entire generation of young black men for the non-violent crime of possession of small amounts of drugs. In fact the mandatory penalties for possession of rock cocaine was far more harsh than the mandatory penalty for powered cocaine.

This was pushed by Hillary who famously who famously called inner city blacks super predators “who must be brought to heel”. This is the same Bill Clinton who argued in the federal courts for the Arkansas state police’s right to racially profile drivers.

I have worked for reformed of New York’s draconian and racists Rockefeller drug laws since XXXX. I spoke at a rally addressed by the Reverend Al Sharpton AKA Russell Simmons, Andrew Cuomo and a host of labor leaders. I have written in favor of affirmative action, which was a Nixon administration program to address passed inequalities for black people. I have long taken the libertarian view in support of gay marriage and I have written and said that marijuana should be legalized and regulated for recreational purposes and that the federal government should remove marijuana from the Schedule A-list that includes heroine and cocaine. As a first step to federal legalization as some republicans are now proposing.

Neither Steve Bannon nor Alex Jones nor Roger Stone is a racist or a bigot but that did not stop many in the mainstream media from continuing this narrative.

Alex brings up Pence being Booed by the cast and crowd at the Play Hamilton. Pence gracefully stayed and has been very understanding of it. Pence may be hawkish on war, but is Pro-Life and Pro-Gun.

The gathering of tens of thousands of Somali Muslims for the Islamic Eid Al-Adha Animal Sacrifice Feast in the Mall of America in Minnesota caused chaos on September 12. In this amateur footage, obviously not shown in the original news report, you can see them storming the building. At least 10 people were arrested by Bloomington Police after a fistfight broke out.

BREAKING: Coincidentally, as I was writing this description, there seems to have been a stabbing spree just minutes ago

The Somai Community Organizer Abdi Bihi proudly claims that the Sudanese community now "owns" 7 Malls in the state. A woman says it's like paradise for them: Unlimited food, entertainment and playgrounds for the plentiful kids - most likely at the expense of the American taxpayer.

Tens of thousands of Muslims, mostly Somalis, went to Mall of America to celebrate their Eid Al Adha holiday. Large groups of teens became unruly and got into fights with security and police. Don't forget - it's the Religion of Peace.

These are most violent people. The guy on the stage does not speak English. At 1:07 "How the somali kids in Cedar are terrorists", but she does not deny it or say it is not true. At 1:23 "We're not here to blow it up, we're more than that". "If we dont' get it shut it down". Who in their right mind goes out in public yelling and screaming in a foreign language. Fighting with the police and referring to the police as "mother ****ers", and getting arrested and pouring milk on their own faces. Be sure to check out the great videos from "Adamic Amethyst 3.0".

I am beginning to believe that somebody somewhere has something on this turncoat tool. He has abandoned his flock — the hundreds of thousands of Christians subjugated, oppressed and slaughtered under Islamic law are all but forgotten by their “fearless” leader.

Pope denounces “epidemic of animosityagainst Muslim migrants

“We see, for example, how quickly those among us with the status of a stranger, an immigrant, or a refugee, become a threat, take on the status of an enemy. An enemy because they come from a distant country or have different customs. An enemy because of the color of their skin, their language or their social class. An enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith.”

This is outstandingly disingenuous, and simply reflects the talking points of the European and North American elites — that opposition to the Muslim migrant influx is a manifestation of “racism” and “xenophobia,” when it is really a concern about jihad terror. Pope Francis would apparently prefer that Europeans and North Americans be murdered in jihad attacks than that Muslim migration be slowed or halted in an attempt to prevent this.

“Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14)

“The pope has spoken out against an ‘epidemic of animosity’ against immigrants and other faiths,” by Philip Pullella, Reuters, November 19, 2016:

VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – Pope Francis on Saturday said an “epidemic of animosity” against people of other races or religions was hurting the weakest in society, as he struck a note of caution against the rise of populist nationalism.

Little more than a week after Donald Trump was elected the next U.S. president, buoying anti-immigrant parties in Europe and elsewhere, the pope said people should not be seen as enemies just because they were different.

“We see, for example, how quickly those among us with the status of a stranger, an immigrant, or a refugee, become a threat, take on the status of an enemy,” Francis said at a ceremony to induct new cardinals.

“An enemy because they come from a distant country or have different customs. An enemy because of the color of their skin, their language or their social class. An enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith,” he said.

While not naming any country, Francis appeared to refer to the anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim attitudes that surfaced during the U.S. campaign and since the election.

The U.S. Justice Department said on Friday it was investigating reports of intimidation and harassment, including in schools and churches since the election.

“How many wounds grow deeper due to this epidemic of animosity and violence, which leaves its mark on the flesh of many of the defenseless, because their voice is weak and silenced by this pathology of indifference,” the pope said.

The Church itself was not immune to “a virus of polarization and animosity,” he said, an apparent reference to a public challenge to the pope by four conservative cardinals, who accused him of sowing confusion on important moral issues…

Pope Grants Priests False Right

To Forgive Abortion

Published on Nov 21, 2016

Infowars reporter Joe Biggs breaks down how Pope Francis has granted powers to priests to forgive abortion and here I thought that was something only God could do.

Mark 2:10-"But that ye may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins"

“I henceforth grant to all priests, in virtue of their ministry, the faculty to absolve those who have committed the sin of procured abortion,” he wrote, extending the permission past the temporary Year of Mercy to an indefinite status. “I wish to restate as firmly as I can that abortion is a grave sin, since it puts an end to an innocent life,” Bergoglio continued. “In the same way, however, I can and must state that there is no sin that God’s mercy cannot reach and wipe away when it finds a repentant heart seeking to be reconciled with the Father. May every priest, therefore, be a guide, support and comfort to penitents on this journey of special reconciliation.”

Mike Gendron of Proclaiming the Gospel Ministries of Plano, Texas told Christian News Network. “No priest can forgive sins because the Bible declares only God can forgive sins (Mark 2:7). Even Peter instructed Simon the magician to go directly to God to have his sin forgiven (Acts 8:22-23).”

He said that Catholics need to know that they can go to God themselves through the blood of Christ, and expressed concern that Bergoglio is “deceiv[ing] people about life’s most critical issue: how can I be forgiven and be made right with God?”

“This declaration by pope continues to give Catholics a false hope,” Gendron stated. “Catholics need to know that divine forgiveness can only be received by repenting and believing the Gospel of grace (Luke 24:47; 1 John 1:9). Forgiveness cannot be obtained through sacraments and indulgences, only through faith in Christ alone.”

Muslims pray by Rome's Colosseum

in protest over mosque shortage

Italy: “Give us back our mosques or we will pray to Allah in the Vatican”

THEY TELL US WITHOUT EQUIVOCATION EXACTLY WHAT THEY WANT AND HOW THEY INTEND TO GET IT, WHICH IS WHAT MAKES THE DENIAL AND APOLOGETICS BY WESTERN ELITES IN THE MEDIA, GOVERNMENT, ENTERTAINMENT, ETC. SO VERY CONTEMPTIBLE.

ITALY: “GIVE US BACK OUR MOSQUES OR WE WILL PRAY TO ALLAH IN THE VATICAN”

The Pope should welcome them into the Vatican and give them a church to pray in. After all, he just said: “We see, for example, how quickly those among us with the status of a stranger, an immigrant, or a refugee, become a threat, take on the status of an enemy. An enemy because they come from a distant country or have different customs. An enemy because of the color of their skin, their language or their social class. An enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith.”

The Pope doesn’t want to be thought of us one who thinks of Muslims as “an enemy because they think differently or even have a different faith,” does he? Open up the Vatican to Muslims, Pope Francis!

“Leave them; they are blind guides. And if a blind man leads a blind man, both will fall into a pit.” (Matthew 15:14)

“Muslims in Italy: ‘Give Us Back Our Mosques or We Will Pray to Allah in the Vatican,’” by Thomas D. Williams, Breitbart, November 10, 2016:

Despite a major Muslim protest at the Colosseum against the closure of illegal mosques, Rome police have continued shutting down so-called “garage mosques,” and now Muslims are threatening to invade Saint Peter’s Basilica to pray there.

This week, authorities closed down another makeshift mosque in Rome for failure to meet building norms and for non-compliance with safety standards, the sixth such mosque-closing in the last months.

In response, Muslims in Rome have threatened to invade the Vatican to pray in Saint Peter’s Basilica, which Italian media are calling Islamic “blackmail.”

“As many as 300 people can pray here; where will we go if it’s closed?”, said a young Muslim man identified only as “Hussein,” who works in a hardware store not from one of the “Islamic centers” that police have closed.

This center is located in the eastern suburbs, a district where half of the inhabitants are Muslims and the heart of the Islamic protest against the closure of Islamic places of worship.

“We live here, we work here, we cannot go to pray in Parioli [the other side of town],” says Anwar, the president of a neighborhood prayer hall.

“The problem must be solved at the social and political level,” said Bachcu, the organizer of the Coliseum protest. “Continuing with the closings will not solve anything. A prayer room cannot be closed due to a problem in urban planning. Prayer is our fundamental right and if they insist on shutting down the mosques, we will pray in the streets,” he said.

A number in Rome’s Muslim community have suggested staging a more provocative protest in the form of a “flash mob.”

“They wanted to go and pray ‘Allahu Akbar’ throughout the city, all the way to the Vatican,” said Bachcu. “In the end we managed to stop them, but if they start these initiatives, what do we do?”

Last month, thousands of Muslims gathered outside the Roman Colosseum to protest the closures of a number of “garage mosques,” purportedly to avoid young people becoming radicalized.

During the demonstration, an imam led the group in chanting “Allahu Akbar,” as they prostrated themselves on the ground….

THE ITALIAN government is planning to send in 150 soldiers into Milan over claims the city is at breaking point because of an influx of migrants

GETTY Angelino Alfano, Italy’s Interior minister is sending in troops to deal with the migrants

Interior minister, Angelino Alfano, added he would double the number of officers in the army to handle the chaos.

Mr Alfano said: “We will send 150 more soldiers to Milan to support the police, who are already operating at the highest level.

“When I became minister there were 400 military officers. The goal is to double that number.”

The minister was speaking at a security summit in Milan where the city’s mayor, Giuseppe Sala, said he begged the government to intervene after the city became overrun with migrants.

Mayor Sala said: “We are working to prevent and take action where necessary, so we asked the government to increase the number of soldiers that are already in the city.”

During the summit, which was held in the Palazzo Marino, it was also decided that military will be redirected from Rome to the city to deal with the crisis.

GETTY Italian police are already stretched to capacity

GETTY The city of Milan is reaching breaking point

The mayor and government minister said the army will be in charge of “supervision of sensitive sites” while police will look after other key places such as the main train station where migrant gangs gather.

Mayor Sala said: “We believe in the use of mixed patrols and more military officers will strengthen those forces in the most difficult routes and meeting places.”

The announcement comes after a knife fight broke out between migrants from the Philippines in the city.

GETTY The government says Milan has already had more than its quota of migrants

The mayor also announced he his halting all new arrivals of migrants in the city until the situation is under control.

Mr Alfano said the city had “already done its part” to help deal with the migrant crisis and Italy needed a more coordinated effort between cities to make sure all were pulling their weight.

He added: “It has reached its quota. There will be a stop to migrant arrivals. The weight of immigration feels heavy because there are municipalities that do not accept migrants and others have to cope. We’ll try to get them to work together.”
